Lisbon | Downtown

These are the images of a walk through downtown Lisbon (from Rossio to the Praça do Comércio), in a cold and hazy afternoon. And although it is a city of light, the beauty of Lisbon does not fade in the absence of the sun. Enjoy this views of my beloved city with the voice of Amália Rodrigues, the diva of Fado.

I love to visit markets and shops, the most popular places, walking among people, buy what is most characteristic, talk with vendors.

In Florence, I went several times to the market of San Lorenzo, which was very close to the hotel. Product diversity was huge. Fresh fruits and vegetables. Good fish, meat and groceries. Vendors helpful and friendly. It was the man who sold the zuppa Toscana mix that gave me the soup recipe and I found him because the owner of the pasta store walk with me across the market to show me the best place to buy what I wanted.
